    I don’t have whisper or sleeper

    Is darci a third option?

    Darci or Thunderlord should also do solid work. Whisper is always the king shit if you can land your shots but it's not the only option.

    I would probably make sure to bring Ikelos for backup though since that bastard has a TON of health and you might run out of heavy.

    Remember before turning on the forge to grab a flag in the EDZ.

    I haven't gone in as a squad, if it lets you just fire the event on site, then getting a flag should work to be full.

    It actually lets you retain your ammo when you go into it

    Ammo never gets reset when you go into matchmaking other than for competitive modes like gambit and crucible.

    Super and ability energy does though.

    I still need to see it for my first time and might be able to make time this afternoon (best coast).

    Yup. Strikes, raids, forges, all of them will reset your super energy to zero but you will start with exactly the amount of ammo you had when queuing in.

    Yes, it's stupid.

    I don’t think that’s true about forge and ammo. I’m pretty sure you get a minimum amount of heavy ammo if you start below an amount

    I havent played all that much Gambit in a while, decided to run one earlier and I was zoning into a Gambit match on my Warlock, I see on the roster that we are only 5 people in that match... I vaguely remember getting tossed 1vs4 before and go "Please dont be me, please dont be me"

    Yeah, it wasnt me this time, just some other poor bastard, noone even emoted at him, everyone was looking at each other and then at him like "Oh shit, son".

    Also, to add even further insult to injury to this guy...

    It's like when you zone in to a patrol area like DC. If your ammo for any weapon is above a certain minimum you keep what you've got, otherwise it'll bump you up to said minimum.

    I don't even really feel bad about this shit anymore. I've taken enough shit from Gambit and the Crucible. If the game decides to fuck the other team with hte matchmaker or the enemy team gets stuck with those assholes who quit after they lose the first round, that just makes life easier for me. Poor bastards, I've been there, but I'm taking my win.

    Why cant Bungie playtest their shit even once? How are you going to damage the Servitor Forge boss with him and a normal servitor just shielding each other at the same time?

    This is the 3rd time in a row this has happened, I dont have nearly enough ammo to kill every single servitor they keep spawning.

    First forge beat! Wasn’t too bad. Had to run it maybe a total of 12 attempts. 4 last night 8 or so today. Shoulda gotten it a few runs earlier but some jerk cabal jumped in front of me as I went to teather the boss

    Sure enough we just barely didn’t beat him so it’s clear we would’ve had the teather landed right

    I swapped to a rampage outlaw duke with minor spec mod. One kill in I could start one shorting the basic cabal in round one. Made crowd control smooth

    One of the first times we were trying on my hunter we almost killed him and what fucked us was that as I jumped up to tether, the super animation pushed me a bit higher and suddenly I'm face-to-face with a fucking stalactite that I literally couldn't see because it's on the roof directly above me. And so I tether a piece of rock attached to the ceiling, no enemies grabbed, no orpheus rig reset, we fail at 10% hp.

    I’m pretty sure the forge matchmaking is based on light level. Most players I see there are pretty close to mine.

    Nessus Forge Boss, Servitor is shielding boss, boss is shielding servitor - This has happened to me 6 times in a row now, this encounter is bloody broken and luck dependant, it easily costs like 30 seconds worth of boss damage each time.

    Fuck that place.

    Not at all impressed with the forges and this DLC in general, I knew this wasnt going to be a big DLC but everything is way too grindy and with nothing really exciting to show for it. (except the MG, I love that thing.)

    I was hoping you would at the very least be able to do reforges (change perks, like we could on guns at one point in D1) on the Black Armory armor pieces eventually, sure doesnt seem like it though.

    Gofannon forge is proving hard to complete. Managed to get the boss down to a sliver one time, but otherwise not really getting close. It doesn't help that he occasionally goes immune.

    Yup, Gofannon boss is some bullshit alright. Strict timelimit, random immunity unless you spend all your time killing bullet sponge servitors, and he camps on top of the respawn to kill you instantly. Who thought this was a good idea?

    I wish I could just go back to the other forge, but I've got that fucking sniper frame so if I do there's a chance they straight up delete it.

    The boss from the first forge is only slightly less bullshit imo.

    Got my first few Forge clears, the HMG dropped with quickdraw and Rampage so thank you very much for that game. Now that I'm sort of properly leveled I like the Forges, they feel tense and challenging and one way or the other it's over quick. I don't mind something that's hard as nails if it doesn't overstay its welcome.

    I was a bit behind my buddies on the new forge because the step to kill the HVT Captain on Nessus was killstolen from me repeatedly.

    Eventually I used my own memories to go, HEY, STUPID, THEY SPAWN ELSEWHERE TOO BESIDES EXODUS BLACK, and I got it. I did get to hear my buddies attempting the Gofannon Forge, however.

    One of them had completed it with randos in one try on their first try, so they went in a bit cocky when it was three of them. The amount of cussing and rage from the chain shielding servitors and the boss constantly teleporting them was amusing, to say the least.

    They kept at it and knocked it out (this was on Friday). I think they were so pissed / real life busy, they didn't log in Saturday, so on Sunday I pestered them to help me complete it and the first forge.

    Knocked out both on the first attempt. First one is getting to that easy, but not super easy, so it's still a lot of fun stage.

    Gofannon we got with probably a few seconds left. I can't see myself doing that often, so I'm glad Machine Guns and Auto Rifles seem to be designated for the first stage.

    By the time we need to do Gofannon again, we'll probably be at a Power level where it'll be much easier.

    Are the last two Forges the same Power level as these two?
